What do you do to be involved in the community?
Cat Daddy told me the other day that he had “important neighbourhood news which would permanently change the way we live our lives”. I thought it was going to be about the car parking in our street, or the accursèd number 65 bus which randomly terminates mid-route and boots everyone out in some undesirable location, but Cat Daddy said it was worse than that: Family Next Door will be getting TWO KITTENS.

Cat Daddy: “Louis Catorze’s life will be RUINED.”
Me: “He’ll be fine. He lived with Blue the Smoke Bengal two doors away and he was fine.”
Him: “But that’s because Next Door was like a demilitarised No Man’s Land in between. Now it’s not.”
Me: “He can handle himself.”
Him: “What if they bully him? He’s never had to deal with a nasty neighbourhood bully cat before.”
Me: “Erm, that’s because he’s it.”
[Silence, tumbleweed, crickets.]
True story, Mesdames et Messieurs: Catorze may be small but he has never shied away from a fight. He once beat up a larger cat so badly that Cat Daddy had to intervene to help the other cat.
I like to think that Catorze, as the elder statesman of the TW8 cat community, might do his civic duty and become a mentor to the young newcomers. But what is his leadership style? And on which of the following iconic teachers will he model himself?
